If You Want Me To Stay

If you want me to stay
I'll be around today
To be available for you to see

But I am about to go
And then you'll know
For me to stay here I got to be me

You'll never be in doubt
That's what it's all about
You can't take me for granted and smile

Count the days I'm gone
Forget reachin' me by phone
Because I promise I'll be gone for a while
And when you see me again
I hope that you have been
The kind of person that you really are now

Got to get in straight
How could I ever be late
When you're my woman taking up my time

Whoa, oh how could I ever allow
I guess I wonder how
I could get out a pocket for fun (how, how)

When you know that you're never number two
Number one's gonna be number one
Oh

I'll be good
I wish I could
I get this message over to you now

And when you see me again
I hope that you have been
The kind of person that you really are now

I'll be so good
I wish I could
I get this message over to you now
